“Karen is truly incredible. She takes care of your four legged kid like it is her own and does not miss a beat. She gave daily updates, exposed our pup to things he has never been exposed to, and is genuinely a great human being. We are incredibly grateful for the time that we could spend away completely worry free with our dog in Karen’s care.”


“Thank you for taking such great care of Grizzly. He came home happy and tired. We loved receiving all of the updates and photos. We will definitely be reaching out the next time we need a dog sitter!”

“Nicole & Derek were great, very welcoming and friendly, and loved that our boys🐶🐶could sense the same. Thor & Titan were very comfortable from the moment we walked in, and their little Winston🐶was a perfect playmate. The updates and photos were comforting, and letting both sleep with them on the bed spoke volumes. We don’t take lightly who we entrust our fur babies with, and these guys will definitely be our first call when needed. Thanks again for the exceptional care! 5-stars all day long!!!!!😎✌🏻”

“Dynette is an amazing sitter! She took such loving care of our dog, Calvin, while we were away, sharing frequent updates and photos so we knew he was doing well. It was so reassuring knowing Calvin was in such good hands while we were gone. We highly recommend Dynette and will definitely book with her again next time we need a sitter.”

“We left our dog with Kaitlyn and her husband while away on vacation. We felt very comfortable leaving her with them and appreciated the daily feedback and videos. Our dog definitely took advantage of their large fenced in yard!”

“This was the second stay for our standard poodle and we already feel like we are dropping him off with family! The pictures and video they send tell us Beau not only feels at home, but is having the time of his life! They have so much fun with him and him with them. Thank you John and Teri! You guys are amazing. ❤️”

“Jenny and Mark were fantastic with Obi and our first time using Rover. They made me feel 100% comfortable with leaving Obi with them for the first time ever, and communication was open and reassuring. I received several updates while on our trip and found Obi very happy and comfortable staying with them. Will absolutely be reaching out to them again in the future!”


“Patty and Patrick did an amazing job with Rosie and took exceptional care of her including trips to the dairy queen. They sent daily pictures of the fun she was having. I highly recommend them.”

“Monica was amazing as always! She kept my pup for 7 nights and sent me updates and pictures daily. It’s so nice to be able to leave town and know that your pup is well cared for. Thanks Monica!!”

“We have left our dog with Alisha & Cameron on several occasions now. Rue absolutely adores going to their house and always comes home tuckered out, happy, and healthy! They are very attentive, experienced, and regularly send us pup updates during our trips. We cannot recommend them enough and will continue using their services for future travels!”

“Valerie was great with our two kitties! Our boy cat is typical not trusting of new people and can be hard to work with, and she was very patient with him! Our girl cat became best friends with Valerie!! She was very thorough with her duties, had great communication and I know our kitties were well taken care of!”

“Vanessa is a true cat-lover and our cat was comfortable with her from the first time they met. She took excellent care of him while we were away on vacation, followed directions, and I would highly recommend her to other cat parents.”

“Very happy with the services provided by Travis. He went above and beyond with the care of our loving companion Champa, he would send us daily pictures of him and would communicate with us about him as well as was more then happy with Champas feeding schedule. My wife and I highly recommend Travis to anyone looking for a cat sitter and will be going through him again next time we need.”

About: I've had more than 2 dogs in my home my entire life, from 8 week old puppies to seniors. I have experience giving the dogs medicine when they need it. I work part time at a retail store, so I am never working more than 9 hours at a time, I usually only work 4-5 hours normally. I make the pets my priority when I am caring for them and I watch their behaviors so I can catch anything out of the ordinary. I follow feeding directions and potty schedules.
“Leslie was very prompt and professional in her response to our request. Our dog was very comfortable with her right away, and so were we. She communicated well how the in-home visits were going, and we would definitely recommend using her for dog care.”
About: Hi there! My name is Jenna and while I’m home I would love to watch your pup. I am a foster parent for many different rescues in the area including Cocos Heart, Across America Boxer Rescue and Rejection Collection Boxer Rescue. I have fostered everything from 10 week old puppies (yes I have the chew marks on my couch to prove it) to the unforgettable seniors! My home is full of dog beds, treats and all the loving they could ever want. I have a privacy fenced in backyard and provide kennels as well for safe spaces too. I would love to cuddle your fur baby while you are away. I will be returning to the office here in January but I can offer a safe space via kennel or pen while I’m at work (no longer than 8 hours). I do have some hybrid days that I may be home to give extra cuddles. When I’m not working, I’m home. While home, treats, loves, pets, outside time are in the agenda. When I am not home safe space kennel time with soothing music until I return will play. My privacy fence covers 90% of my yard with a fenced gate covering the other 10%. Your fur baby will not be outside unattended however. I also have a boxer that if they get along they are welcomed to play together, however if they don’t get along no worries! Being a foster parent I know how to split my house and time between to babies. I also have cameras set up so I can keep an eye on the babies at all times. Your fur baby will be treated like royalty when they are staying here.

About: Hi! My name is Frankie, and I’ve spent many years caring for cats and dogs of all breeds and personalities. I truly love animals, and my top priority is making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or quiet companionship, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I nanny as well and know these are babies too just with fur!
About: My lifelong passion for animals began on our family’s organic dairy farm in Menomonie, Wisconsin, where I learned the dedication required to care for animals of all sizes. Over the years, we have opened our hearts and home to our friends' pets, gaining extensive hands-on experience with everything from energetic dogs to gentle bunnies. As a homeschool family, someone is almost always home to provide continuous love, attention, and structured care. We spend plenty of time outside so your pet will have lots of opportunities to exercise and spend time in the sun. Your pet will enjoy full access to our house and a large, securely fenced yard perfect for safe outdoor exploration. Located in a peaceful, dog-friendly neighborhood, we offer a warm, reliable, and attentive home-away-from-home where your pet will be treated like family.
About: I've taken care of dogs (housesitting and dog walking) ever since I was 10 years old. I have taken care of dogs anywhere from 9 weeks old to 17 years old. I have no problem giving medications or any special requests. I am currently in the middle of my senior year at Montana State University and am home for a bit this summer! I am extremely flexible, usually I end up going to the gym once a day, but don’t have any formal commitments! I do not have a home that I can bring dogs into, but I am more than willing to take care of dogs in your home, crating them, keeping them leashed (if necessary), and making any other modifications you may need.

About: Hi! My names Olivia and I have grown up with cats and other animals my whole life. I will provide reliable care for your furry friends while you are away. I will ensure a safe and happy environment for your pets!

“Elizabeth did an excellent job caring for my two cats over a long weekend. She was punctual, kind, and quick to learn my cats' specific routines. I have one cat who is quite shy and typically hides from visitors (even family members who visit regularly), but Elizabeth managed to earn his trust on the very first visit. My other cat requires an inhaler twice a day and can be quite squirmy, but Elizabeth administered the dosages without any issues. Elizabeth sent updates after every drop-in visit, complete with cute photos. She even watered my flowers outside. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that my pets and my home were in good hands while I was away.”

About: Even at a young age, I am very trusted by friends, family, and my community. I have spent countless hours with all breeds, sizes, and ages. Dogs have always had a special place in my heart and I cherish each old and new relationship! I am blessed to still have my 12 year old red fox lab in my life, so I take care of her daily. I have many loved ones who sometimes need help caring for their pets and I am always first on their list to contact. I love to be outside and partaking in physical activity, so I would love to provide a service for walking/exercising your pets! When clients communicate with me how they want me to meet their dogs needs, I will do everything I can to meet that expectation!
About: Being a dog owner is one of the most rewarding experiences to me! I enjoy the love, passion, and intelligence they have. I also understand it can be a lot of work especially when life gets busy, or sometimes you just need someone to stop in and check on them while you are out of town. I am happy to help with a variety of needs! 🙂 I currently work full time with a reasonably flexible schedule! Availability will open up more in a couple of months. Let me know what you are looking for! I completed The Ultimate Canine Communication Masterclass by Larry Krohn, and working on a couple other courses with the intention of eventually getting certified in dog training. A lot of what I learned in those courses relate to proper equipment, dog behaviors and body language, communication, and foundation. Which all play in a role in caring for and keeping your pet safe and having fun!

“Jessica and Jacob were amazing sitters! Very friendly and professional. My pup went to their house for daycare for a few days and had a great time with their family. Will definitely book again!”

“Our dog Aggie had a great time with Julie! When we booked, she asked if Aggie would be ok having another dog around. We said Yes and the two Cockapoos had a wonderful day together. We appreciated Julie being willing to take on a second dog since we were asking last minute.”


“This was the first time we used Rover. We left Gunner for a daycare day to start. Carolyn and Kristopher were great with Gunner. Carolyn wrote down all the details of Gunner’s normal routine and his particular needs. He came home very tired which was a win. We will be using them again in February for a longer stay. So thankful we found such wonderful people to leave him with.”

About: I have never not had a dog…or multiple!😊 I’ve grown up with Labrador Retrievers. With that being said, I can handle the chewing, the energy, the hours of stimulation, and the endless snuggles! I have raised multiple puppies into adulthood, with two currently being my own! From potty training to tricks, to walking on a leash, I have done it all! I also have had family dogs that’s we have had until 12-14 years old that have required special needs due to age. I am a nurse who once wanted to become a vet so I am super flexible from an experience standpoint!😊 I am a night shift nurse who works just a couple days a week! With that being said, my schedule is flexible and I’m almost always home! We are extremely active people who go on multiple walks a day, and I typically run a couple miles a week as well! Weather permitting, we are outside 95% of the time. My dogs are always enjoying the sun on our large deck that overlooks our woods, outside running in the woods, or playing fetch in the yard. We have 2 young and friendly labradors who love to play and meet new friends! We own 2 acres, half of it being woods with trails! This would be for the guests who have a great recall or have halo collars😊 For the ones who struggle a little more with recall, we have a 3 car garage with a doggy door to go in and out of a fenced in area (in pictures)! Also a large deck to catch some rays on, as well as plenty and plenty of walks! I want your pup(s) to feel as comfortable as possible and never want to leave😊 I am extremely flexible and want to stick to their routine as much as possible!

“Cate and Tim and Ainsley were great to Murphy and their place was a perfect playground. Murphy came home happy and tired. It was our first Rover and she had no stress. Highly recommend them!”

“Orlando and Nicki were very responsive and accommodating. They were welcoming and hospitable. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience with them and they took very good care of our pet.”

About: I’ve worked with dogs and cats in many different ways. I have owned dogs my entire life, plus a few cats. I volunteer at the Humane Society in Kansas City while at school where I work directly with the shelter dogs. I have house sat for multiple family friends and am ready to take on new pups and cats! I am currently home from school for the summer so am looking to fill the time. I work part time as a server a few times a week. During the day I often just workout, read a book, or hang with my own dogs. I have fostered a dog before and can adjust well to your dogs needs. I’ve practiced crate training, furniture restrictions, and other small training tasks. My house has an open yard which my dogs are free to run around in when they are not on leash to go potty.
“Stella had her first doggie daycare experience with John and his family! We wanted her to not have to spend all day in a crate and get some good social time in with other people and dogs. They sent lots of pictures to let us know about the fun she was having! She had a fantastic time and was exhausted when she came home. She is already looking forward to the next time she goes back!”

About: I’m a stay at home momma who can’t wait to have pawsome adventures with your pups! 😊🐶 I have experience in feeding, grooming, walking, administering medication, and ensuring a safe environment for dogs since childhood. This began with my family dogs, which taught me the importance of love and patience with our furry family members, and this mentality has continued into my adult life with my own pups. I am a stay at home momma so I have a lot of availability and flexibility all week long for boarding, daycare, check ins, etc.! I have a large yard with a friendly fur baby of my own to keep your pet company! I also have endless tough chewer toys to keep your pup’s tail wagging!
“Giovana and her family were so wonderful with Skye. I couldn’t have asked for a better puppy sitter. Thank you so much for treating Skye like he was part of your family. If I need a sitter again, hopefully you are available. 😁”


“Butters had a great time! Mike sent us plenty of updates and photos so we knew he was having a great time, and seems to genuinely care about the dogs. We can't wait for Butters to go back!”

“Shannon and David were great taking our husky with separation anxiety for an evening. They were very communicative, responsive, and provided us with photos through the evening. We would not hesitate to have them watch Izze again.”
“She responded immediately to our last-minute request to take our dog for the day. She let us know what to expect and how she would feed Aggie. She was willing to keep her even longer than I requested, since we weren't sure when we would be back. She even offered to walk her out to the car under an umbrella during the storm! Aggie came back to us happy and tired out. I'm so glad we booked with Elizabeth W!”

“Fiona’s first outing with Valerie went really well. Fiona got good exercise and Valerie worked with her on manners and over reactivity. Valerie gave us good feed back and videos. We will continue with Valeria and look forward to Fiona’s progress.”

About: I have owned Golden Retrievers and German Shepherds my entire life. I can pick up/drop off from your house (20 mile radius), take them for walks, bring to vet appointments and/or Grooming appts within a 10 mile radius. My current schedule allows Monday-Friday. As a pet parent I know how much you want your pup to live his/her best life and if you are a working pet parent that can sometimes be difficult to help get their energy out. I can stop by for a drop in visit to your home to take your pet potty or play or for a walk. I have a 8 year old super friendly Golden Retriever who could come along if your pet likes a walking buddy to do laps or if they prefer by themselves.
About: I’ve spent years caring for my own pets, ensuring they’re happy and healthy. I’ve looked after my grandma's cat multiple times and other puppies and kitties for friends. I stand out from other sitters because of my deep passion for animals and my hands-on experience. I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats, and I take the time to understand each pet's unique needs. I love to give extensive play-times when possible, and lots of pets! Whether it’s administering medication for senior pets or providing a nurturing environment for lonely kitties, I’m committed to giving your furry friends the best care possible. I'm currently working part-time as well as attending university, so my schedule may be busy, but I am more than willing to work around it to accommodate for proper pet care. My Sundays are always open and Fridays are usually open as well. Let's work something out! I live in a safe, well-secured apartment complex beside a golf course, so plenty of room to give walks if needed. I also have two kitties with separate rooms, based on if your furry friend needs company or just some alone time! I am committed to ensuring that every pet is happy and healthy and feels safe in its environment.
About: I have been pet sitting since I was 10 years old. I have had pets my whole life including dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, birds and reptiles. I would care for your pet like it was my own. I love nature and animals. My pets are part of the family and I know it's difficult to trust someone else with a beloved pet. I am available most nights and weekends. If you work odd hours then I can help out and make sure your pet is cared for. I treat every pet like a member of the family. I would make sure they feel comfortable and secure and know it takes time to grow trust.

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember—everything from energetic Labs to laid-back Basset Hounds, plus a rescue puppy that I personally helped train and grow into a well-behaved companion. That hands-on experience has taught me how to understand different temperaments, energy levels, and care needs. From basic training and leash manners to patience with shy or stubborn pups, I’ve learned that every dog is unique and deserves personalized attention. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I genuinely enjoy building trust and creating a positive, fun experience for them every time we’re together. Whether your dog needs a quick potty break, a long adventure walk, or just some extra love while you’re busy, I treat every walk like it matters—because it does. I tailor each visit to your dog’s personality, pace, and needs, making sure they feel safe, stimulated, and happy every step of the way.

I follow all instructions closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, walk times, medication, or any specific habits your pet is used to. During visits, I make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, not just the basics. I keep their environment clean, refresh water bowls, and make sure they’re safe and comfortable before I leave. I’m also mindful of your home, treating it with respect and keeping everything just as I found it.
About: One of my favorite things about working with dogs is that every dog has a different personality. I take the time to learn what makes each one comfortable and happy, and I adjust my care to fit their needs. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, playful, or laid-back, I’ll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable care throughout the week. I enjoy staying active, so dog walks and visits are something I genuinely look forward to. I make it a priority to be dependable, communicate with owners, and ensure pets receive the attention and care they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow the owner’s instructions and routine to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I take the time to build trust with each pet, pay attention to their individual needs, and provide plenty of care, attention, and updates while you’re away.

“This was the second stay for our standard poodle and we already feel like we are dropping him off with family! The pictures and video they send tell us Beau not only feels at home, but is having the time of his life! They have so much fun with him and him with them. Thank you John and Teri! You guys are amazing. ❤️”

“Jenny and Mark were fantastic with Obi and our first time using Rover. They made me feel 100% comfortable with leaving Obi with them for the first time ever, and communication was open and reassuring. I received several updates while on our trip and found Obi very happy and comfortable staying with them. Will absolutely be reaching out to them again in the future!”


“Patty and Patrick did an amazing job with Rosie and took exceptional care of her including trips to the dairy queen. They sent daily pictures of the fun she was having. I highly recommend them.”

“We have left our dog with Alisha & Cameron on several occasions now. Rue absolutely adores going to their house and always comes home tuckered out, happy, and healthy! They are very attentive, experienced, and regularly send us pup updates during our trips. We cannot recommend them enough and will continue using their services for future travels!”

“Carman was a delight and we felt very comfortable leaving our two dogs with her. She sent pictures and took them outside to play and they seemed very comfortable and at ease when we picked them up. Carman stayed up late for us to pick them up at 11pm which we also greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend Carman, and will definitely ask her to take care of our pups in the future.”


“Alicja is an AMAZING sitter! I will absolutely rebook in the future. She took such great care of my pup while I was out of town, and provided lots of updates with pictures and videos.”

“Amazing people!! Julie and Jon are so kind, and took care of our dog for over a week. They treated him as if he was their own, and sent updates so we could see how he was doing. We were so impressed that we booked again before we even finished our vacation! So happy to find a great family that loves and cares for animals, and is so trustworthy!”

“Brandy and Chad do a fantastic job with our small dog Patty. Patty can be nervous, tense, and anxious around strangers, but they've done a wonderful job to make her feel like she is at home. We highly recommend them for your dog sitting!”
